Totally. Every wrinkle matches!!

[@annieo6527]

It's funny how only yesterday, Brooke was telling Nick how she had taken advantage of men by using them as substitutes for Ridge and then leaving them. Yet now when Macy is saying the _exact same thing_ to Brooke that Brooke was saying _about herself_ half an hour ago, Brooke doesn't want to admit it. And then, after Macy and Sally has left, Brooke again seems to acknowledge that she did, in fact, hurt Macy. But then Captain Nick (clearly speaking as the voice of the writers) basically makes excuses for her so that she _doesn't_ need to take any responsibility. Brooke is not maIicious, she is a "free spirit." 🙄 Oddly, _even Brooke_ seems to know that the new attempt on the writers' part to redeem her doesn't add up. And Macy, of course, is pointing out this discrepancy in the writing, the lack of consequences for Brooke, even more clearly when she says that there is "no fallout". It feels as if she is actually meta commenting on the fIaws in the writing (again).

[@annieo6527]

@@songriver1232 but does she actually have a vendetta? She is not doing anything to hurt Brooke, she is only trying to keep Brooke from hurting _other people._ If you witness a person being buIIied or treated unfairly, does it mean that you have a "vendetta" against the buIIy if you intervene to stop them? Macy can either let it go, and thus become a tacit accompIice to Brooke mistreating Deacon and the children, or she can stand up for what's right even if it means going up against Brooke. Brooke has _no right_ to take her daughter's father away from her. If she doesn't feel that Deacon is capable of being a parent, that is for a judge to decide, not Brooke. I think Macy is doing the right thing. But maybe she is doing it partially for the wrong reasons - there is something about her behavior that seems a little unbalanced.

Nick is another puppet of Brooke making excuses for Brooke lol

[@FayeIL]

Nick’s insta-simping for Brooke, airily excusing anything she ever did without knowing the details, is both weird and annoying. If you want to build them as a viable alternative to Bridge, even as a bait and switch, at least make some effort to have this be an actual adult relationship. Ironically and perhaps justly, Macy’s warning to Nick that his relationship with Brooke will “be a short ride” proves highly (and painfully, for Nick) accurate in Season 17.

[@annieo6527]

@@FayeIL I was thinking the same. Macy was reliably warning Nicky about his future. Just like with Thorne, she sees how Brooke's relationships will end before Brooke does. Maybe that is what set Macy off in this scene - seeing Brooke on a date with another unsuspecting non-Ridge maIe.

It may seem far-fetched that Macy is bIaming Brooke for her not having a child with Thorne, until you remember that the day Macy "died", she pleaded with Brooke to realize that her infatuation with Thorne was just a phase, hoping that _"as a mother"_ Brooke would understand what she was taking away from Macy (that is, the chance to be a mother too). And Brooke didn't listen. If Brooke had admitted in that moment that Macy was right, Macy and Thorne might actually have had children.

Apparently Rick now doesn't want Deacon around the kids after finding out about what Deacon and Brooke did to Bridget. But he also has no problem with _Brooke_ being around the kids after finding out about what Deacon and Brooke did to Bridget. 🙄 Amber is actually the voice of reason for a change, when she is willing to let Deacon build a relationship with his children. But Rick won't allow it, even though he has _no parental rights_ to Little Eric - _Amber alone_ has those rights, so she is the one who is allowed to make those decisions. Rick has no say.

[@mara4450]

The only issue with that is that Amber has no parental right to Hope and so she can't make decisions concerning that child. And Deacon doesn't yet have even visitation rights for that daughter, that was born while Brooke had been married to Whip (marriage now annulled) and Deacon had been married to her daughter Bridget. Neither Rick nor Amber have any say when it concerns Hope but they all are aware that Brooke has cut Deacon out of Hope's life. If Deacon wants to see Hope, he either has to talk to Brooke or he has to get a lawyer and go to court to establish parental rights for that child.

[@ahy4234]

​​@@mara4450I don't really understand it. Here in our country there is a birth certificate for every child born, where the father and mother are registered. Question of the day: what did Brooke write at Hope's? Father unknown? If not, Deacon automatically has the rights to do so unless Brooke has already filed an order with the court.

[@annieo6527]

@@mara4450 wouldn't Deacon have rights as Hope's father though? And if he doesn't, couldn't he get them quite easily by going to court? It doesn't seem right for Brooke to excIude him completely from their child's life.

[@FayeIL]

And soon we’ll find out Amber doesn’t actually have any parental rights in this current version of the B&B-verse, either, since Deacon didn’t sign over permanent parental rights and Amber/Rick never applied for adoption (stupid behind belief, but welcome to Jonathan’s legal advice). Of course, IRL Rick and Amber would have de facto custody unless Deacon sued for a paternity test because 1) Rick’s and Amber’s names are on the birth certificate, presumably, and 2) since Little Eric has been living with them since birth, that gives them at least enough to sue for custody successfully. But B&B Law is as realistic as B&B Medicine.

[@mara4450]

@@ahy4234 In California a mother does not have to put her baby's dad on the birth certificate. (and when Taylor had given birth to Thomas in Jan. 1998, Taylor decided to leave the father's name blank) If she is *_unmarried_* , there are two ways the dad can get on the birth certificate: 1) *_both_* parents sign a form at the hospital or any other time (voluntary declaration of paternity) 2) *_the father takes the mother to court_* and if he is the biological dad, he can get added to the birth certificate if there is no dad on the birth certificate, the mother is the only legal parent if the mother named someone else other than the biological dad, that person is the legal parent and he has right to custody and responsibility to pay support (until contested) BUT a birth certificate DOES NOT establish legal parentage when parents are unmarried. Only signing a Voluntary Declaration of Parentage or obtaining a judgment in court legally establishes parentage for the children of unmarried parents. ________________ CA: Who is a legal parent? In general, you are a child's legal parent if You are the child’s birth parent (not a surrogate) You and the other parent were married or registered domestic partners when your child was born or conceived You and the other parent filed a Declaration that establishes you as the legal parents A judge determined that you are a legal parent in a court case (for example, in a child support, juvenile dependency, domestic violence, or adoption case)
